Reply #34: Virus protection, which needs to be updated regularly

[nadinbrzezinski]

and of course my all time fav, getting programs to WORK with it

To the point that two of them, got a copy for the MAC and have gotten a copy of XP to run on the MAC for THAT PARTICULAR program

Games behave though, well mostly. There are a few that we have not gotten since they will NOT run on vista.

These days it is a dedicated gaming rig

And the security settings, well yes, doing all the security updates is a pain in the pittui and there are plenty of those. Sorry, I do the IT on the home machine and I have NEVER ever seen an OS with so many security holes that require updates and some of them manual updates.

Shall I start the list, starting with FLASH (I know, that is not them, but still) and ending up with VISTA and Office back door security issues.
